One of us has missed something really fundamental here! :-)

AFAIK GNU Privacy Guard (gpg) is not the same thing as Gnome Keyring
Manager.

If you know something I don't--that you can use gpg on the Gnome
keyrings--then you also have to tell me where those keyrings are
located.

Software is not manufactured, it is something you write and publish.
Keep Europe free from software patents, we do not want censorship
by patent law on written works.

Politicians are like diapers -- they need to be changed often, and
for the same reason.
